ACPS is now certified by Common Sense Media as a Common Sense District! As part of this digital citizenship certification, schools are teaching students how to use technology in safe and healthy ways, addressing topics like maintaining a healthy digital footprint and staying safe in an online community. As a division, we would like to highlight the importance of this work during National Digital Citizenship Week, October 17-21.

In honor of Digital Citizenship Week, the Department of Technology’s Learning Technology team has launched a Digital Citizenship Week website featuring short, fun, and easy-to-access extensions to the existing digital citizenship curriculum.

Be on the lookout for information from your Learning Technology Integrator (LTI) about community events coming up in November! These will provide opportunities for you and our school community to be a part of the conversation.

We appreciate your ongoing support with digital citizenship throughout the school year. For additional support, please reach out to your school’s LTI.
